There are several steps in your research process:
- develop your research question and topic
- brainstorm keywords
- find background information
- use the search tool to find articles, books, or the material you need
- review your literature review and evaluate what you found
- organize your references in a citation management tool
- organize your ideas and outline them
- cite your sources
Tip: Research is flexible; you can go back on your steps and remember to value feedback.
